32. Agree. I have to wonder how many DUers consider themselves better off after the last eight years.

Judging by the profusion of gofundme threads here lately...I'm perplexed.

I voted for President Obama enthusiastically the first time, not so much the second. But I did vote for him.

I don't think he's been a bad president, but I've been disappointed on many levels.

Even the OP has lately posted about how things have gone poorly for her recently. I also was laid off during the Obama years. I also am not a young person. The ONLY time I suffered that in all my working years.

I was able to become employed pretty quickly again, but things are vastly different from 8 years ago.
